CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/CN2019/082474, filed on Apr. 12, 2019, which claims priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/657,033, filed on Apr. 13, 2018, the contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure generally relates to surveillance systems, and more specifically relates to methods and systems for detecting abnormal scene in a video.

BACKGROUND

Video surveillance systems are widely used in a variety of applications to detect and monitor objects within an environment. For example, in security applications, such systems are employed to detect and track individuals or vehicles entering or leaving a building facility or a security gate, or to monitor individuals within a store, office building, hospital, or other such setting where the health and/or safety of the occupants may be of concern. A further example is the aviation industry, where such systems have been used to detect the presence of individuals at key locations within an airport such as at a security gate or in a parking garage. In recent years, video surveillance systems may be used to automatically monitoring human behavior. However, current technology does not provide the ability to determine and/or interpret the intent or actions of people in a video scene (e.g., whether two or more persons in a video sequence are involved in a fight, engaged in a conversation, or involved in some other activity). It is desirable to provide systems and methods for detecting abnormal scene based on a video surveillance.

SUMMARY

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a system for detecting abnormal scene may include a storage device storing a set of instructions and one or more processors in communication with the storage device. When executing the instructions, one or more processors may be configured to cause the system to obtain data relating to a video scene and identify at least two motion objects in the video scene based on the data. The one or more processors may also determine a first motion feature relating to the at least two motion objects based on the data and determine a second motion feature relating to at least one portion of each of the at least two motion objects based on the data. The one or more processors may further determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in a fight based on the first motion feature and the second motion feature.

In some embodiments, the at least one processor may be further directed to track movements of the at least two motion objects in the video scene.

In some embodiments, the at least one processor may be further directed to identify at least one surrounding object in the video scene, determine a third motion feature relating to the at least one surrounding object in the video scene, and determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in the fight based on the first motion feature, the second motion feature, and the third motion feature.

In some embodiments, to determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in a fight based on the first motion feature and the second motion feature, the at least one processor may further directed to compare the first motion feature with a first criterion, compare the second motion feature with a second criterion, and determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in the fight based on the comparison of the first motion feature with the first criterion and the comparison of the second motion feature with the second criterion.

In some embodiments, the at least one processor may be further directed to determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in a fight based on at least one of physiological signals relating to the at least two motion objects or voice signals from the video scene.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating an exemplary processing engine 140 for processing video data according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown, the processing engine 140 may include a data acquisition module 102, a data processing module 104, a motion object determination module 106, a fighting assessment module 108, an alarm module 110, and a storing module 112. In some embodiments, the data acquisition module 102, the data processing module 104, the motion object determination module 106, the fighting assessment module 108, the alarm module 110, and the storing module 112 may be connected to and/or communicate with each other via a wireless connection (e.g., a network), a wired connection, or a combination thereof.

The data acquisition module 102 may acquire data relating to a video scene. In some embodiments, the data relating to a video scene may include a video. As used herein, the term “video” may refer to motion pictures represented in analog and/or digital form. For examples, a video may include television, movies, image sequences from a camera or other observer, computer-generated image sequences, or the like, or a combination thereof. As used herein, a sequence (also referred to as a frame) may refer to a particular image or other discrete unit within a video. In some embodiments, the video may be obtained from, for example, a live feed, a storage device, an IEEE 1394-based interface, a video digitizer, a computer graphics engine, a network connection, or the like, or a combination thereof. For example, the data acquisition module 102 may obtain the data relating to a video scene from a monitoring device 120. In some embodiments, the monitoring device 120 may include a video camera. As used herein, a video camera may refer to an apparatus for visual recording. For example, the video camera may include a color camera, a digital video camera, a camera, a camcorder, a PC camera, a webcam, an infrared (IR) video camera, a low-light video camera, a thermal video camera, a CCTV camera, a pan, a tilt, a zoom (PTZ) camera, a video sensing device, or the like, or a combination thereof.

The monitoring device 120 may be positioned to perform surveillance of an area of interest (AOI). The AOI may be reflected in the video as the video scene. In some embodiments, the video scene may include one or more objects of interest. The one or more objects of interest may include a person, a vehicle, an animal, a physical subject, or the like, or a combination thereof. One or more actions of the one or more of objects of interest may be reflected in the video scene. In some embodiments, the actions of the one or more objects of interest may include performing a movement, making a sound, making a response, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, one or more actions and/or one or more composites of the actions of one or more motion objects may be also referred to as an activity. An event may refer to a fact that one or more objects are engaged in an activity. The event may be defined by a location and/or a time. In some embodiments, the event relating to the one or more objects may include a normal event and an abnormal event. The normal event may refer to an event performed by the one or more objects that may not cause a damage to one of the objects or other subjects. The abnormal event may refer to an event performed by the one or more objects that may cause a damage to one of the objects or other subjects. For example, the abnormal event may include fighting, quarreling, robbing, gathering, collision, etc. The normal event may include dancing, greeting (e.g., handshake), exercise (e.g., running), playing a game, etc.

In some embodiments, the data acquisition module 102 may transfer the data relating to a video scene to other modules of the processing engine 140 for further processing. For example, the data acquisition module 102 may transfer the data relating to a video scene to the data preprocessing module 104 for preprocessing the data. As another example, the data acquisition module 102 may transfer the image data relating to a video scene to the motion object determination algorithms 114 for determining a motion object from the video scene. As still an example, the data acquisition module 102 may transfer the data relating to a video scene to the storing module 112 for store in a local database or a remote database.

The data preprocessing module 104 may preprocess the data relating to a video scene. In some embodiments, the preprocessing for the data relating to a video scene may include an enhancement operation, a transform operation, a compress operation, an edge detection, a segmentation operation, a nose reduction operation, or the like, or a combination thereof. For example, the transform operation may be perform to transform the data relating to a video scene in a domain (e.g., a spatial domain) to another domain (e.g., a frequency domain) for determining a feature of a motion object in the video scene. As another example, the enhancement operation may be performed to enhance a portion (e.g., a subject portion) of the video scene. As still another example, the segmentation operation may be performed to identify or classify a motion object in the video scene. In some embodiments, the data preprocessing module 104 may transfer the preprocessed data relating to a video scene to other modules of the processing engine 140 for further processing. For example, the data preprocessing module 104 may transfer the preprocessed data relating to a video scene to the motion object determination module 106 for determining one or more motion objects in the video scene.

The motion object determination module 106 may determine one or more motion objects in the video scene. In some embodiments, the video scene may include a subject portion and a background portion. The subject portion may include one or more motion objects of interest. For example, if the video scene relates to an indoor environment (e.g., a room), the subject portion may include one or more persons, one or more animals, (e.g., a dog), etc., and the background portion may include one or more walls/windows, one or more furniture (e.g., a desk, a bed, etc.), one or more potting, etc. As another example, if the video scene relates to an outdoor environment (e.g., a street, a park, etc.), the subject portion may include one or more vehicles, one or more pedestrians, etc., and the background portion may include one or more plants, one or more constructions, one or more communal facilities, rain, snow, swaying branches of a tree, etc.

In some embodiments, the motion object determination module 106 may identify the subject portion (e.g., one or more motion objects) and/or filter the background portion from the video scene based on one or more motion object detection algorithms 114. Exemplary motion object detection algorithms may include an inter-frame difference algorithm, a background difference algorithm, an optical flow algorithm, or the like, or a combination thereof. For example, the background difference algorithm may include a temporal difference algorithm, an average filtering algorithm, a W4 algorithm, a Gaussian mixture model algorithm, etc.

In some embodiments, the motion object determination module 106 may track the one or more motion objects in the video scene. The motion object determination module 106 may track the one or more motion objects in the video scene (e.g., continuous image frames) via estimating a motion state of the motion objects based on the data relating to video scene. In some embodiments, tracking of motion objects may be performed by determining a match relationship of one or more features of motion objects reflected in the video scene (e.g., continuous image frames or sequences). The features of motion objects may include a static feature and a dynamic feature. The static feature of motion objects may refer to a feature of a motion object unrelated to movements of motion objects. For example, the static feature of motion objects reflected in the video scene (e.g., continuous image sequences or frames) may include shape (e.g., a height, a width, a ratio of height to width, etc.), color, texture, or the like, or a combination thereof. The dynamic feature of motion objects reflected in the video scene (e.g., continuous image sequences or frames) may relate to movements of motion objects. For example, the dynamic feature of motion objects may include a movement trail, a movement velocity, a movement displacement, a movement direction, a movement acceleration, or the like, or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the motion object determination module 106 may classify the one or more identified or tracked motion objects to determine one or more motion targets. For example, the identified or tracked motion objects may be classified into organism and non-organism. As another example, the identified or tracked motion objects may be classified into persons and animals. In some embodiments, the identified or tracked motion objects may be classified based on one or more one or more features of the identified or tracked motion objects (e.g., static features and/or or dynamic features). For example, the identified or tracked motion objects may include a persons and a vehicle. The motion object determination module 106 may classify the person and the vehicle based on shapes of the person and vehicle.

In some embodiments, the motion object determination 106 may transfer data relating to the determined motion object to other modules of the processing engine 140 for further processing. For example, the motion object determination 106 may transfer the features relating to the motion targets to the fighting assessment module 108 for determining whether the at least two motion objects are involved in a fight. As anther example, the motion object determination 106 may transfer the features relating to the motion targets to the storing module 112 for store. More descriptions for the motion object determination 106 may be found in FIG. 3.

The fighting assessment module 108 may determine whether at least two motion targets are involved in a fight. In some embodiments, the at least two motion targets may be determined by the motion object determination module 106. In some embodiments, the fighting assessment module 108 may determine whether the at least two motion targets are involved in a fight based on dynamic features (also referred to as motion features) relating the at least two motion targets. In some embodiments, the dynamic features may include a first motion feature, a second motion feature, a third motion feature, etc. As used herein, the first motion feature (also referred to as global motion feature) relating to at least two motion targets may refer to motion features relating to an entire body of each of the at least two motion targets and/or a relationship between motion features relating to entire bodies of the at least two motion targets. For example, the first motion feature relating to at least two motion targets may include a movement trail of each entire body of the at least two motion targets, a motion intensity of each entire body of the at least two motion targets, a motion consistency of entire bodies of the at least two motion targets, or the like, or a combination thereof. The second motion feature (also referred to as local motion feature) relating to each of the at least portion of the at least two motion targets may refer to motion features relating to a local portion of the each of the at least two motion targets. For example, the second motion feature may include a movement trail of a portion of each of the at least two motion targets, a motion consistency of the portion of each of the at least two motion targets, a motion velocity of the portion of each of the at least two motion targets, a motion displacement of the portion of each of the at least two motion targets, a motion direction of the portion of each of the at least two motion targets, or the like, or a combination thereof. The third motion feature (also referred to as surrounding motion feature) may relate to the movement of one or more objects surround the at least two motion targets. The More descriptions of the motion features may be found in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6.

Further, the fighting assessment module 108 may compare the first movement feature with a first criterion and/or the second motion feature with a second criterion. Then, the fighting assessment module 108 may determine whether the at least two motion objects are involved in a fight based on the comparison between the first motion feature and the first criterion and the comparison between the second motion feature and the second criterion. More descriptions for the fighting assessment module 108 may be found in FIG. 5.

In some embodiments, the fighting assessment module 108 may be connected to and/or communicate with other modules of the processing engine 140.

As another example, the fighting assessment module 108 may transfer the fighting assessment result to the storing module 112 for store in a local database or a remote database.

The alarm module 110 may generate an alarm signal relating to a fight between the at least two motion targets. The alarm signal relating to a fight may be in a form of sound, text, image, video, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the alarm module 110 may be connected to and/or communicate with one or more terminals 160 to provide the information related to the alarm signal to a user. In some embodiments, the information related to the alarm signal may be displayed on the user interfaces of the one or more terminals 160 in at least one of sound, text, image, video, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the information related to the alarm signal may be displayed on the user interfaces of the terminals 160 in one or more view windows, among which, one view window may display a panoramic scene in one resolution and at least one other view window may display a partial scene focused on the at least two motion targets in a different resolution. The terminals 160 may include a mobile device, a tablet computer, . . . , a laptop computer, or the like, or any combination thereof. For example, the mobile device may include a mobile phone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a gaming device, a navigation device, a point of sale (POS) device, a laptop, a tablet computer, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the terminals 160 may include an input device, an output device, etc. The input device may include alphanumeric and other keys that may be input via a keyboard, a touch screen (for example, with haptics or tactile feedback), a speech input, an eye tracking input, a brain monitoring system, or any other comparable input mechanism.

In 210, an alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects may be generated. Operation 210 may be performed by the alarm module 110. The alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects may be in a form of sound, text, video, image, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects may be transmitted to a device (e.g., the terminals 760, the terminals 160, etc.) associated with a user to provide the information related to the alarm signal to user. In some embodiments, the information related to the alarm signal may be displayed on the user interfaces of the one or more terminals 160 in at least one of sound, text, image, video, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the information related to the alarm signal may be displayed on the user interface of the terminals 160 in one or more view windows, among which, one view window may display a panoramic scene in one resolution and at least one other view window may display a partial scene focused on the at least two motion targets in a different resolution. In some embodiments, the alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects may be transmitted to a monitoring device (e.g., the monitoring device 720, the monitoring device 120, etc.) associated with the detected motion objects to provide an intervening signal to the detected motion objects or other objects associated with the detected motion objects. The intervening signal for the detected motion objects or other objects associated with the detected d motion objects may be in a form of image, sound, text, shock, or the like, or a combination thereof. For example, the intervening signal for the detected motion objects may include a shock generated by the monitoring device (e.g., a smart wearable device) in response to the alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects. As another example, the intervening signal for the detected motion objects may include buzzing generated by the monitoring device including a buzzer in response to the alarm signal with respect to the occurred fight among the detected motion objects.

In some embodiments, the object tracking unit 304 may track movements of the at least two motion objects based on one or more motion object tracking algorithms 314. Exemplary motion object tracking algorithms may include an estimation-based tracking algorithm, a feature-based tracking algorithm, a model-based tracking algorithm, an area-based tracking algorithm, a motion contour-based tracking algorithm, or the like, or a combination thereof. The estimation-based tracking algorithm may include a Kalman filtering algorithm, a particle filtering algorithm, etc. The feature-based tracking algorithm may apply a feature (e.g., shape, texture, color, edge, etc.) of an object to track the object. The area-based tracking algorithm may include a Camshift algorithm, a kernel-based tracking algorithm, a trust-region tracking algorithm, etc. The motion contour-based tracking algorithm may include applying a Snake model, a Hidden Markov model (HMM), etc.

Exemplary classifier techniques may include a decision tree algorithm, a logistic regression algorithm, a naive Bayes algorithm, a neural network algorithm, or the like, or a combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the object classification unit 306 may be connected to and/or communicate with other components of the motion object determination module 106. For example, the object classification unit 306 may transfer the determined targets to the target describing unit 308 for describing the at least two motion objects. As another example, the object classification unit 306 may transfer the determined targets to the scene change detector 310 for determining a motion change of the targets.

For example, the scene change detector 310 may transmitted the change relating to the video scene to the target describing unit 308 for describing the features relating to the motion objects.

This description is intended to be illustrative, and not to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Many alternatives, modifications, and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The features, structures, methods, and other characteristics of the exemplary embodiments described herein may be combined in various ways to obtain additional and/or alternative exemplary embodiments.

In some embodiments, the data relating to a video scene may include a video as described elsewhere in the present disclosure (e.g., FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, and the descriptions thereof). The video may include multiple image sequences (also referred to as image frames). The multiple motion objects may be reflected in the at least one portion of the multiple image sequences with specific postures, specific positions, specific shapes, etc. In some embodiments, the data relating to a video scene may be obtained from the monitoring device 720, the storage device 780, the terminals 760, or any other external storage device.

The multiple motion objects may be identified from the multiple image sequences based on one or more motion object detection algorithms as described elsewhere in the present disclosure (e.g., FIG. 1, and the descriptions thereof).

In 404, two or more motion objects may be tracked in the data relating to the video scene. Operation 404 may be performed by the object tracking unit 304. In some embodiments, the object tracking unit 304 may track the movement of an entire body of each of the two or more motion objects in the multiple image sequences. For example, the object tracking unit 304 may track the body contour of each of the two or more motion objects in the multiple image sequences. As another example, the object tracking unit 304 may track an estimated gravity center of each of the two or more motion objects in the multiple image sequences. In some embodiments, the object tracking unit 304 may track the movement of a portion of each of the two or more motion objects in the multiple image sequences.

Further, the object tracking unit 304 may perform a blob-based tracking. For example, the object tracking unit 304 may connect moving pixels to form blobs. Then the object tracking unit 304 may track the blobs to track the two or more motion objects. In some embodiments, the two or more motion objects may include a first portion and a second portion. The motion objects in the second portion may surround the motion objects in the first portion. In some embodiments, the motion objects in the second portion may gather to the motion objects in the first portion in the video scene.

In 406, the two or more motion objects may be classified to determine targets in the two or more motion objects. Operation 406 may be performed by the object classification unit 306. In some embodiments, the targets may include human.

FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram illustrating an exemplary fighting assessment module 108 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown, the fighting assessment module 108 may include a feature determination unit 520, a event detector 540, and a fighting detector 560. In some embodiments, the feature determination unit 520, the event detector 540 and the fighting detector 560 may be connected to and/or communicate with each other via a wireless connection (e.g., a network), a wired connection, or a combination thereof.

The feature determination unit 520 may include a global motion feature determination sub-unit 522, a local motion feature determination sub-unit 524, a surrounding motion feature sub-unit 526, and a historical feature determination sub-unit 528, etc.

The global motion feature determination sub-unit 522 may determine a global motion feature (also referred to as a first motion feature as described in FIG. 1) relating to an entire body of each of motion targets. In some embodiments, the global motion feature relating to an entire body of each of the motion targets may include a movement trail of an entire body of each of the motion targets, a movement intensity of an entire body of each of the motion targets, a movement consistency between the motion targets, etc. The movement trail of an entire body of each of the motion targets may refer to a spatial feature of the movement of the entire body from the beginning to the end. The movement trail of an entire body of each of the motion targets may be defined by the direction of the movement trail, the amplitude of the movement trail, etc. The amplitude of the movement trail may relate to a length of the movement trail. The movement intensity of an entire body of each of the motion targets may relate to a movement speed, a movement frequency, etc. For example, the greater of the movement speed of an entire body of each of the motion targets is, the greater the movement intensity of the entire body of each of the motion targets may be. As used herein, the movement frequency may refer to a frequency that the entire body of each of the motion targets performs a same action (e.g., jumping, moving back and forth, etc.). The higher the movement frequency of an entire body of each of the motion targets is, the greater the movement intensity of the entire body of each of the motion targets may be. The movement consistency between the motion targets may refer to a similarity between movement trails of the motion targets. The greater the similarity between movement trails of the motion targets, the greater the movement consistency between the motion targets may be. In some embodiments, the similarity between movement trails of the motion targets may refer to a similarity in the moving direction, a similarity in the moving speed, whether the moving trails intersect with each other, or a combination thereof. For example, the movement trails between the motion targets demonstrating running together in a same direction and same speed may have a higher similarity than that of the motion targets demonstrating running in a same direction yet in different speed (e.g., one chasing another). Therefore, the movement consistency between the motion targets demonstrating running together in a same direction and same speed may be higher than that of the motion targets demonstrating running in a same direction yet in different speed (e.g., one chasing another). As another example, the movement trails between the motion targets demonstrating intersection with each other may have a lower similarity than that of the motion targets demonstrating running in a same direction and same speed. Therefore, the movement consistency between the motion targets demonstrating intersection with each other may be higher than that of the motion targets demonstrating running in a same direction and same speed.

The local motion feature determination sub-unit 524 may determine a local motion feature (also referred to as a second motion feature as described in FIG. 1) relating to a portion of each entire body of motion targets. The portion of each entire body of the motion targets may include a hand, an arm, a finger, a thumb, a foot, an elbow, a knee, the head etc. In some embodiments, the local motion feature relating to the portion of each entire body of motion targets may include a movement trail of a portion of each entire body of motion targets, a movement velocity of the portion of each entire body of motion targets, a movement consistency between portions of entire bodies of motion targets, etc. The movement trail of the portion of each entire body of motion targets may refer to a spatial feature of the movement of the portion of each entire body of motion targets from the beginning to the end. The movement trail of a portion of each entire body of motion targets may be defined by the direction of the movement trail, the amplitude of the movement trail, etc. The amplitude of the movement trail may relate to a movement length of a portion of each entire body of motion targets relative to the each entire body of motion targets, a movement angle of a portion of each entire body of motion targets relative to the each entire body of motion targets, etc. The movement consistency between portions of entire bodies of motion targets may refer to a similarity between movement trails of portions of entire bodies of motion targets. The greater the similarity between movement trails of portions of entire bodies of motion targets, the greater the movement consistency between portions of entire bodies of motion targets may be. For example, the similarity of movement trails between the portions of entire bodies of motion targets being dancing together may be higher than that of the motion targets being fighting. The movement consistency between the portions of entire bodies of motion targets being dancing together may be higher than that of the portions of entire bodies of motion targets being fighting.

The surrounding motion feature determination sub-unit 526 may determine motion features of motion objects surrounding the motion targets. As used herein, the motion objects may be considered to surround the motion targets if the motion objects is within a specific range from the motion targets. For example, if the motion objects are within a pre-determined range from the motion targets, the motion objects may be considered to surround the motion targets. The motion features of the motion objects surrounding the motion targets may include a first motion feature relating to an entire body of each of the motion objects surrounding the motion targets (i.e., a global motion feature) and/or a second motion feature relating to a portion of each of the motion objects surrounding the motion targets (i.e., a local motion feature) as described above. In some embodiments, the motion features of the motion objects surrounding the motion targets may further include interacting motion features relating to the interactions between the motion targets and the motion objects surrounding them.

The historical feature determination sub-unit 528 may determine a historical statistic relating to an area where the motion targets are located and/or a time when the motion targets are located in the area. In some embodiments, the historical statistic may relate to an area where the motion targets are located. Further, the historical statistic relating to the area where the motion targets are located may include a frequency of one or more motion object occurring at the area where the motion targets located in history. In some embodiments, the historical statistic may relate to an area where the motion targets are located and a time when the motion targets are located in the area. Further, the historical statistic may include a frequency of one or more motion objects occurring at the area where the motion targets are located and at the time when the motion targets are located in the area. In some embodiments, the historical statistic relating to an area where the motion targets are located may include probabilities of a fighting occurring at the area, at the time, between the motion targets, or the combination thereof.

The event detector 540 may detect one or more events occurring between the one or more motion targets based on the motion features relating to motion targets determined by the feature determination unit 520. In some embodiments, the events may include an individual event relating to a single motion target and a group event relating to at least two motion targets. For example, the individual event relating to a single motion target may include dancing, greeting, exercise (e.g., running), robbing, steal, etc. The group event may include fighting, quarreling, gathering, collision, etc. In some embodiments, the events may include an abnormal event and a normal event occurring between the motion targets as described elsewhere in the present disclosure. For example, the abnormal event may include fighting, quarreling, robbing, gathering, collision, etc. The normal event may include dancing, greeting (e.g., handshake), exercise (e.g., running), playing a game, etc.

In some embodiments, the events occurring between the one or more motion targets may be defined by an area where the event occurs, a time when the event occurs, and/or motion features relating to the motion targets involved in the event. In some embodiments, the event detector 540 may detect the event via determining the area where the event occurs, the time when the event occurs, and/or the motion features relating to the motion targets involved in the event. The motion features relating to the motion targets involved in the events may include at least one of the global motion feature, the local motion feature, the surrounding motion feature, and the historical feature.

The fighting detector 560 may determine whether an event occurring between motion targets detected by the event detector 540 includes a fight based on the motion features relating to the motion targets determined by the feature determination unit 520.

In some embodiments, the fighting detector 560 may determine whether the event occurring between the motion targets includes a fight via comparing global motion features relating to the motion targets with a first criterion. If the global motion features relating to the motion targets satisfy with the first criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets includes the fight. If the global motion features relating to the motion targets do not satisfy with the first criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets does not include the fight. For example, if the fighting detector 560 determines that movement trails of entire bodies of the motion targets do not intersect, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may not include a fight. If the fighting detector 560 determines that the movement trails of entire bodies of the motion targets intersect repeatedly which means that the motion targets approach each other and separate from each other repeatedly, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. As another example, if the fighting detector 560 determines that the movement intensities of entire bodies of the motion targets exceed a first threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. As still an example, if the movement consistency between the motion targets is lower than a second threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. For a further example, if the motion targets are running or dancing in a steady pace or pattern, the movement consistency between the motion targets may be higher than the second threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine an event occurring between the motion targets does not include a fight.

In some embodiments, the fighting detector 560 may determine whether the event occurring between the motion targets includes a fight via comparing local motion features relating to the motion targets with a second criterion. If the local motion features relating to the motion targets satisfy with the second criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets includes the fight. If the local motion features relating to the motion targets do not satisfy with the second criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets does not include the fight. For example, if the fighting detector 560 determines that movement trails of portions of entire bodies of the motion targets do not intersect, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may not include a fight. If the fighting detector 560 determines that the movement trails of portions of entire bodies of the motion targets intersect repeatedly which means that the motion targets approach each other and separate from each other repeatedly, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. As another example, if the fighting detector 560 determines that the movement velocities of portions of entire bodies of the motion targets exceed a third threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. As still an example, if the movement consistency between the portions of entire bodies of the motion targets is lower than a fourth threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets may include a fight. For a further example, if the motion targets are running or dancing in a steady pace or pattern, the movement consistency between portions of entire bodies of the motion targets may be higher than the fourth threshold, the fighting detector 560 may determine an event occurring between the motion targets does not include a fight.

In some embodiments, the fighting detector 560 may determine whether the event occurring between the motion targets includes a fight via comparing the global motion features relating to the motion targets with the first criterion, comparing the local features relating to the motion targets with the second criterion, and comparing surrounding motion features relating to the motion targets with a third criterion. If the global motion features relating to the motion targets satisfy with the first criterion, the local motion features relating to the motion targets satisfy with the second criterion, and/or the surrounding motion features relating to the motion targets satisfy with the third criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets includes the fight. If the global motion features relating to the motion targets do not satisfy with the first criterion, the local motion features relating to the motion targets do not satisfy with the second criterion, and/or the surrounding motion features relating to the motion targets do not satisfy with a third criterion the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets does not include the fight.

In some embodiments, the fighting detector 560 may determine whether an event occurring between the motion targets includes a fight based on the motion features relating to the motion targets. Further, the fighting detector 560 may assess the events with a pre-determined criterion. In some embodiments, the pre-determined criterion may include a pre-determined model relating to a fight. The fighting detector 560 may assess a motion feature vector with the pre-determined model relating to a fight to determine whether the event includes a fight. If the motion feature vector matches with the pre-determined model relating to a fight, the event relating to the motion targets may be considered to be as a fight. The motion feature vector may include at least one of the global motion feature, the local motion feature, the surrounding motion feature, and the historical feature. The pre-determined model relating to an abnormal event (e.g., a fighting) may be determined based a machine learning technique, such as a neural network algorithm.

This description is intended to be illustrative, and not to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Many alternatives, modifications, and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The features, structures, methods, and other characteristics of the exemplary embodiments described herein may be combined in various ways to obtain additional and/or alternative exemplary embodiments. However, those variations and modifications do not depart the scope of the present disclosure. For example, the feature determination unit 520 may further include a physiological signal feature determination sub-unit. The physiological signal feature determination sub-unit may determine a physiological signal feature relating to each of the motion targets. As another example, the fighting detector 560 may further determine whether the motion targets involve in a fight based on the physiological signal feature relating to each of the motion targets.

In 604, a local motion feature relating to each of the motion targets may be determined. Operation 604 may be performed by the local motion feature determination unit 524.

In 608, historical statistic relating to historical fighting events may be obtained. Operation 608 may be performed by the historical feature determination sub-unit 528. The historical fighting events may correspond to the same area and/or time in a day of an event the motion targets involved in a video scene. The event the motion targets involved in the video scene may be detected by the event detector 540 based on the global motion feature relating to each of motion targets, the local motion feature relating to each of the motion targets, and/or surrounding motion feature relating to one or more surrounding objects. The historical statistic relating to historical fighting events may include a historical frequency of the historical fighting events, a total number of the historical fighting events, etc.

In 610, a determination may be made to as whether an event the motion targets involved includes a fight based on the global motion feature relating to each of motion targets, the local motion feature relating to each of the motion targets, a surrounding motion feature relating to one or more surrounding objects, and/or the historical statistics relating to historical fighting events. Operation 608 may be performed by the fighting detector 560. The event may be detected by the event detector 540 as descried elsewhere in the present disclosure (e.g., FIG. 5 and the descriptions thereof). In some embodiments, the fighting detector 560 may determine whether the event occurring between the motion targets includes a fight via comparing the global motion feature relating to each of the motion targets with a first criterion, comparing the local feature relating to each of the motion targets with a second criterion, comparing a surrounding motion feature relating to one or more surrounding objects with a third criterion, and/or comparing the historical statistics relating to historical fighting events with a fourth criterion. If the global motion feature relating to each of the motion targets satisfies with the first criterion, the local motion feature relating to each of the motion targets satisfies with the second criterion, the surrounding motion feature relating to one or more surrounding objects satisfies with the third criterion, and/or the historical statistics relating to historical fighting events satisfies with the fourth criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets includes the fight. If the global motion feature relating to each of the motion targets does not satisfy with the first criterion, the local motion feature relating to each of the motion targets des not satisfy with the second criterion, the surrounding motion feature relating to one or more surrounding objects does not satisfy with the third criterion, and/or the historical statistics relating to historical fighting events does not satisfy with the fourth criterion, the fighting detector 560 may determine that the event occurring between the motion targets does not include the fight. The first criterion, the second criterion, the third criterion, and/or the fourth criterion may be set by user or according to a default setting of the fighting assessment system 700.
